In the petition, Hanaway alleged Johnston verbally berated her staff and “engaged in an intimate and romantic relationship” with a criminal defense attorney representing “defendants in matters prosecuted by Johnston.” Hanaway also alleged Johnston had relationships with a “prospective defendant” and an immigrant without legal status who was being prosecuted for alleged sexual assault in the county, according to the news release.
